James - My remarks were driven by a re-reading of the MATRIX post and 
the FRUIT LOOPS piece (anyone read that one?). My question was 
essentially: how pervasive is the corporate Matrix. You've given me 
the  answer for Australia, one which I should have anticipated, of 
course.

It's interesting. I think I only hear that Britain and Spain are 
siding with Bush currently. I certainly haven't heard anything on our 
news about Australian troops being committed.

Dan Rather has interviewed Saddam. Of course, even the network admits 
that their tape was reworked for more than a day to 'make certain 
that Saddham was translated correctly' My impression of what I read 
in the paper was that Saddham was going to stand his ground in the 
face of W's demands because he believes that the American people will 
not support a War of aggression. Rather apparently told him that that 
was not true, most people supported the President, but Saddham seemed 
happy to believe that goodness would intervene, or, so I understood.

I dunno...
